it best to award the contract for the cit,

to anybody else. The Registers bid on lot

all things, the Intelligencer's bid was the

AN INVENTOR WANTED.
A Machine to Run by Dog Power
Has a Fortune in 1t.

The men at No. 9 Engine house are
endeavoring to work up some plan
whereby they can utilize some of the
numerous dogs which make the street
in front of the house their play ground.
Within radius of five blocks
from the corner on which the building
stands there are owned about 100 dogs
of all shapes. sizes and colors, from the
stately, dignified st. Bernard to the
small black rat and tan, about the size
of gOOd-siZed rat. The engine house
possesses some sort of an attraction for
the CANNES, and they loaf around there
at all times, day and night. The early
morning and early evening witnesses
the largest number on hand, and when
the whole delegation has arrived there
is any amount of fun. A big liver and
white setter, with melancholy cast OF
cOuntenance. and one leg out of plumb,
generally sets the ball rolling
by jumping on to small spaniel and
tearing a few handfulls of hair from his
back. The row, when once fairly under
way, is something wonderful in its
varied forms, and residents of the neigh
borhOOd are fairly acking for some man
to come along and patent a device
whereby the dogs can be made to clean
off the sidewalks, saw wood or eat up
the numerous agents for goods sold on
the installment plan, who daily
work the people of the East side.

1T DOES NOT GO.
The City Can Not Loan the Park
Board Any Money

Some time ago the park board found
that it was short of funds, and so de-
cided 10 borrow $4,000 for a year or
less. TO bridge over the difficulty. 1t
was decided 10 borrow the money fron
the city, so as 10 save interest, and at
the last meeting OF the council Aid.
Mills introduced resolution authoriz-
ing Comptroller HOlbrook to transfer
from the water department fund, which
has Oh hand a big surplus, S25, 900 10 the
park commissioners, the money to be
returned next July. This was passed
by a unanimous vote. Comptroller
HolbroolI was of the opinion that this
could moi be done legally. and so laid
the matter before City Attorney Smith
yesterday morning. Mr.. Smith decided
that the council had not the right to
transfer this money. and there the mat
ter stands. The consequence will be
that the park board will have to look
elsewhere for the $4,000, and it will
probably be obliged TO hypOthecate its
bonds. ~ was done Oil former Occa-

4 HORRIBLE FIND.

Assistant superintendent OF PO-
lice Hoy Finds Seven Bodies in
Wagon.
The men at police headquarters are
having a great laugh at the expense of
Assistant superintendent j. Hoy and
two inspectors. Yet, when it comes
down to cold facts, the officers were
only doing their duty when they excited
the riSibleS of their friends, and deserve
praise instead Of being made laughing
stock of. 4 few evenings ago, while
Mr.. Hoy and the two inspectors were
going up Hennepin avenue. they
saw a suspiciOus-lOOking wagon being
driven along the opposite side of the
street, in the shadow of the big build
in4S. The two sauntered over to it, and
As they did SO, the driver, who wore his
hat well pulled down over his face, used
the whip on his horses and urged them
TO faster gait. Bnt he was not fast
enough to prevent the police from see
ing number Of strangely human-lOOk-
ing figures, wrapped up in cloth, lying
in the bottom of the wagon.
'GhOuls. by thunderr exclaimed the
superintendent. as he put his hand on
his gun and started forward. But
come on, boys" he continued, 1--WE will
show these grave robbers that there is
yet some law in the land"
The driver was called on to halt, and
did so reluctantly. As the wagon
slowed up Mr.. Hoy jumped up beside
the driver and placed him under arrest.
The poor driver, looking very much
frightened. wanted to know what the
matter was.
Matter enough" replied hoy. 'Here
You are driving the bodies Of seven peO-
through the main streets; taking them
to some medical hospital to be cut up, L
suppose"
Then the driver laughed; and such a
laugh. 1t was deep bass one, full OF
mirth, but somehow it did not make the
officers cheerful. They decided to in
VeStigate before taking the man to the
station. however, and so lifted the cloth
that covered the forms. As they did 50
they started back with an expression of
horror. for there, looking pale and
CHASTITY in the electric light, were seven
faces. one of them most horribly
mangIed. Before the officers could re-
cover from their surprise the driver
turned in his seat and, smiling all over,
said:
Say. when you buffers get through
examining those dime museum StitfS of
the anarchists just let me know, ,andI will
drive on to st, Paul, for it's getting late

A DEMOCRATIC CLUB.
A Temporary One Will Be Made
Permanent Wednesday Evening.

In Norden hall last night very large
number of the more prominent Scandi-
navian citizens held an informal meet
ing for the purpose of organizing So
ciety to be called the Scandinavian
Democratic club. Louis Fredreksen
was made temporary president, while
Fritz Maurer acted as temporary Secre-
tary. The outcome of the meeting
amounted to a resolve 10 hold another
meeting next Monday night at 8 O'Clock
in the rooms of the Algonquin
club, 81 Washington avenue south,
when officers will be elected.
The president, Louis Fredreksen,
brought down the house when
he said, in counseling conservatism in
choosing officers, that last year he at
tended a meeting i'll South Minneapolis
for the same purpose as they were as
sembled for tonight, and there were
about seven in attendance. Before the
meeting was over every one of the seven
had become officers of the organization.
lie hoped they would not be so hasty
with this venture, but take time in
choosing men suitable for the situation.
1t was this speech that mainly made
them hold back from electing officers
last night.
